7.9/10The Bajaj Pulsar 125 is one of the most popular bikes in its segment in the Indian market, offering a decent blend of power, style, and comfort.
The Bajaj Pulsar 125 Neon has the same styling as the previous model, with no tank shrouds or belly pan and special neon details. Its bigger versions have contributed most of the components including the suspension system and the frame. The bike looks and feels more premium than it is. It is also chunkier than many of its rivals at this price point. The design and graphics enliven the proceedings, while the inserts for the alloy wheels, headlamp cowl, and tank are neat touches. The fuel tank now has a slightly lower capacity than before. The neck of the tank has also been lowered, leading to reduced kerb weight.
The Pulsar 125 Neon makes use of the same engine as the Pulsar 150 with a shorter stroke and lower swept volume. This engine makes 12 PS and 11 Nm of maximum torque. There is also a five-speed gearbox which is one of the few in the category. The engine has a cubic capacity slightly reduced to a little less than 125 cc. The engine has slightly lower performance figures at the top-end although power delivery is straight and the engine remains composed higher on the rev band. The Pulsar 125, with its smaller engine, does not need an ABS setup, enabling lower costs for Bajaj overall.
The Pulsar 125 Neon rides well although it is not a typical commuter offering. The Pulsar 125 is heavier this time but maneuvering is still comfortable at lower speeds, while handling also remains decent. It may not always be the lightest bike around although the riding experience is smooth and easy. The brakes perform better and inspire more confidence. The ride feels sporty enough and the tyres need some improvement. The ride quality is overall good and quite similar to the Pulsar 150. The handling of the bike is planted and stable while at highway speeds and the brakes get the job done nicely.
The comfort levels are on the higher side for the Pulsar 125 Neon while the bike offers a refined riding experience. Both the pillion and rider seats are comfortable while ergonomically, the bike is easy to ride and maneuver almost anywhere.
The Pulsar 125 Neon comes with basic features including a semi-digital instrument console and front and rear suspension systems. There is no ABS and instead, the motorcycle uses a combined braking system or CBS.

The Pulsar 125 Neon is ideal for those buyers who are seeking a stylish and more attractive proposition in the commuter motorcycle segment and do not wish to opt for something more conventional.

Considering the price point, the bike certainly offers a value-for-money proposition.
The Pulsar 125 Neon offers good after-sales service with the first service coming after 500 kilometres and the second one after 4,500 kilometres. The third service comes after 9,500 kilometres. The three service packages come free of cost for buyers.
The Pulsar 125 Neon competes with several rivals in the segment. The KTM 125 Duke is in the same league and slightly better, although it is priced at a much higher threshold. It is however the most powerful and stylish bike in the category. Yet, the Pulsar 125 Neon makes a strong case for itself when it takes on the Hero Glamour and Honda CB Shine SP among others. It offers good performance figures with its sporty engine and the overall ride comfort and handling are also par for the course. To top it all, the price point is competitive and unmatched.
The Pulsar 125 Neon offers good value for money to buyers with its stylish design, good engine, and riding manners.

Pros
Cons
The Bajaj Pulsar 125 has a smooth, refined and decently powerful engine. The excellent ride quality, and impressive stability only enhance its capabilities as a well-rounded commuter motorcycle. The only dampener is that its design looks much too common, and identical to the Pulsar 150 Neon. But that strategy could well work to the Pulsar 125's advantage, boasting of similar engaging performance, similar dimensions as the bigger Pulsar 150, but in a more fuel-efficient package.
Bajaj Pulsar 125 is available in 5 different colors namely Black/Silver, Black/Red, Platinum Silver, Solar Red & Neon Blue.
